This year, I rang in 2012 among the wildest creatures of Africa. I went to the Masai Mara in Kenya where lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs and a multitude of other animals call home. I won't bore you with describing every animal so instead, I leave you with some photos....
Admiring the Rift Valley
Lions!
They're like giant Kokanees (Kokanee is my cat)
A leopard hanging out
Hungry Zebra with a Wildebeast in the background
Sunset in the Mara
So I 'borrowed' a real Masai bracelet from one of the Masai working at campsite we were staying at. He looks happy here but as soon as we put the camera away, he insisted I give back the bracelet or pay 2000 kenyan shillings (20 bucks or so)....
I chose to give it back!
